Times Table Check (MTC)

In Year 4, every child takes a national test to check their times table knowledge. This will take place in June 2025. They are set 25 random questions (computer generated) up to 12x12 and have 6 seconds to answer each one. It is crucial that the children spend time each week practising their tables. Useful websites to support this are:

Maths Frame - https://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/477/Multiplication-Tables-Check

Information for parents about this year's MTC can be found at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/multiplication-tables-check-information-for-parents 

Times Table Rock Stars - https://ttrockstars.com/ (Every child has a login for this)

Residential Visit

This term, we have the exciting opportunity to take the children for an overnight visit to Burwell House. The cost will include meals and two action packed days of activities. 

Brass lessons

In the summer term, the children will have the opportunity to learn the cornet. The instruments are provided for them free of charge through the Brass Roots project across Staploe Education Trust and a weekly tutor will come in and teach them how to play.
